Official NYU 2013 Transfer Thread

<p>@tinydancer224444 I e-mailed housing. They said we find out before June 28th.</p>

<p>Hey guys, not sure this thread still whether giving suggestions or not.
I heard people say that NYU do not accept students from CC, because i’m from Hong Kong and did not do well on SAT, so I decide to go to CC and try enter NYU. Currently the only school i want to apply in the US NYU, that’s all. Is it real that NYU low chance to accept students from CC? Because I have to decide this really quick whether i should go to US just for NYU and CC.</p>

<p>@anthony7666 by “CC” do you mean community college? If so, then NYU does accept students from community college! I was accepted as a transfer and I went to a community college. Hope this helps!</p>

<p>Hey, I’m going into my freshman year at Rowan University (an NJ state school). I wanted to go to Tisch next year and was accepted, which was absolutely wonderful and I was so excited to go… except that I couldn’t afford it. with Tisch’s 68k full cost and only 18k a year in financial aid, I couldn’t justify going into 200k of debt for a BFA in drama. I still would like another shot at it though.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what financial aid is like for transfers in comparison to freshmen? I received a full ride to Rowan, so I have a free year to get requirements out of the way and save some money, but getting more financial aid the second time around would be great too… I want to go into less than 100k of debt if I’m going to go into debt at all.</p>

<p>My parents make decent salaries but bad investments, a kind of shocking mortgage, a twin sister and an older brother get in the way of them helping me with financing my college education. Both of my siblings are going into debt I’m the only one yet to take out a loan because of my full ride. My sister is going to Cornell, which, in its reputation for meeting full financial need, covered over half of her expenses, so that she only needs to pay about 22k a year for tuition room and board. Compare that to NYU’s 50k.</p>

<p>I let my grades slip at the end of my senior year (as many do), but I’m hoping that if I get really good grades at Rowan I can get more financial aid for round 2. I think my GPA may have stood in the way of my freshman financial aid (3.2) while my SAT (2090) and audition helped me. Also, will having been accepted before help my chances of being accepted next year?</p>

<p>@snooze button the aid gets worst for the first year you are a transfer student. The plus is if you are a junior transfer like I am you only have to pay it for 2 years.</p>

<p>Hi guys! I am going to SUNY Stony Brook University as a freshman, and my major is Italian study. I consider to transfer to NYU after my first year at Stony Brook. Does someone know how difficult is for a student majoring in Italian ?
My current SAT score is 1760, I will definitely re-take it . And my EC is great , I also have many internships as an Italian translator for Italian companies , and I studied in Italy for one year as an exchange student , and during that year, i also published several articles in Italian and I have 4 on my AP Italian……
I saw the transfer admission profile of many universities , such as UCLA, their websites say that every year there are only 2 ~6 students majoring in Italian that transfer , and admitted students are almost 2~3 ( about 50%~100%) , their GPA is about 3.6 , but I did not find any information about this on the website of NYU.
Thank you in advance :)</p>

<p>everyone here just makes the nyu stern transfering seem so easy. do you have that good of a chance if you’re at a non-competitive college and have like a 3.7 gpa with some ECs? I’m pretty sure most of the people have that kind of gpa since they’re at some non-competitive college that isn’t even that hard to get in. Doesn’t stern still look at SAT scores? so if they’re low… from i what i heard… you’ll still be rejected. :confused: sadly.</p>
